Load Ratings for Factory Wheels?
I am just curious where i can find the load rating for each BMW factory wheel?
Specifically the 20" 469M and the 21" 599M wheels Thanks! Alan

I think it's the tire you would want to know about as the wheel should be higher than the tire.

I want to know the wheel load rating simply so i can use it as my bases for researching aftermarket wheels. It is widely known that usually oem wheels are stronger than aftermarket. This is why most oem wheels are also heavier as well. Living in the east coast driving in a 5K lbs suv wheel strength is more important than being ultra light weight. I know that aftermarket wheels usually have the load rating stamped on the back of the wheel in kg. I wouldn't want to get an aftermarket wheel with a lower load rating than stock wheels. You will be surprised how many people don't know about this and think its ok to slap wheels normally made for civics on big cars like the F10 or F15.
